There are also many tables with activities courtesey of Noodles and Company, ING Direct, Falcon National Bank, Thrivent Financial for Luterans, Kids Against Hunger, Boy Scouts, and Girl Scouts. These vendors and table sponsors really made for a great afternoon! Guests also enjoyed several puppet shows performed by the talented group from Joy Christian Center, as well as received elaborate balloon creations and face painting from Just 4 Laffs Entertainment. Party Time Inflatables was also there with a large inflatable obstacle course and sumo wrestling suits for everyone to enjoy.
